A stone is thrown up with a velocity of 66 m/s from the ground. While coming down, it strikes a glass pan, held at half the height through which it has risen and loses half of its velocity in breaking the glass. Determine the time taken to reach the maximum height and the velocity with which it will strike the ground and total time taken to reach the ground

A rock is tossed straight up with a speed of 25 m/s. When it returns, it falls into a hole 11 m deep. 1) What is the rock's velocity as it hits the bottom of the hole? Express your answer in meters per second. Enter positive value if the velocity is upward and negative value if the velocity is downward. 2) How long is the rock in the air, from the instant it is released until it hits the bottom of the hole? Express your answer in seconds.
While standing at the edge of the roof of a building, a man throws a stone upward with an initial speed of 6.61 m/s. The stone subsequently falls to the ground, which is 17.3 m below the point where the stone leaves his hand. At what speed does the stone impact the ground? Ignore air resistance and use ?=9.81 m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity. A) Impact speed: _________________________ m/s B) How much time is the stone in the air? elapsed time: ____________ s
A ball is thrown upward from the ground with initial velocity vi = 19 m/s and reaches height of h above the ground before falling back down. Take the upward direction to be positive. Refer to the figure. Neglect air resistance. 1) Enter an expression for the height of the ball at a given time, h, the ball reaches in terms of the velocity at the current height vh, the initial velocity vi, and the acceleration a. 2) Enter an expression for the time it takes for the ball to travel from the ground to the a given height, Δt, in terms of the initial velocity vi, the velocity at that height vh, and the acceleration a.
